A Simple Christmas Wish by Melody Carlson is a cute but sad
story about family during the Christmas season. Rachel Milligan is taking care
of her young niece Holly while her parents are celebrating their anniversary
overseas. She was not expecting the call that would change all of their lives
forever: Holly’s parents died in a plane crash. Rachel begins to make plans for
taking care of Holly when her brother’s will is discovered she finds out a
distant Amish aunt is Holly’s new guardian. Rachel and Holly soon find
themselves in an Amish community. As Holly struggles to adapt to her new life,
Rachel must also come to terms with not having Holly in her life every day.
Along the way, they meet new people in the Amish community as they both find
their lives changing.
This book was a very easy read, and the main characters were
likeable and relatable. This would be a great Christmas gift for any friend who
likes to read!
